It’s also missing the pledge to not arrest people for eating bacon. Can we please get away from this ridiculous American style politics.
What a weird article. It talks as if abortion is illegal in the UK. It is not illegal.
I think it’s talking about at what point in the pregnancy abortion is allowed. I think most would agree that there is a point at which elective abortion should be off the table (e.g. would anybody argue for an abortion to be allowed the day before birth?). So the debate is about when that point is. A fair debate, but articles like this don’t help.
the only reason it would ever be performed a day before birth is because the pregnant person would die otherwise so yes there should be no limits on when it’s off the table
Isn’t the law that you can only do it until the baby can survive outside of the womb? Which is around 20 weeks. Sounds pretty reasonable.
It is perfectly reasonable.
But abortion is a big issue in the US and the UK media love to import US debate topics and try to make them relevant here.
BLM and ACAB were a similar thing. Yes, we do have our own problems here, especially in the MET Police, but it’s less of a systemic thing and moreso isolated incidents.
